Librarians at North Carolina State University Libraries have created â€œBig Pictureâ€ videos that address common conceptual problems in information literacy. Rather than teach â€œhow to do X,â€ these videos focus on core concepts, fundamental to information literacy. The videos transcend institutional specifics of how to search within a given library, and can be reused or adapted to fit specific institutional needs.
